I spotted this most clever holidays greeting from Fresh Brothers in Redondo Beach last week. Unfortunately, the photo I snapped from my car was worthless. Fortunately, this one from Hadley Tomicki, via Grub Street LA, was not. And, yes, that advertisement is kosher.

As is the custom in the final days of any year, media outlets are putting out a lot of year-in-review type features. I found ESPN Page 2’s list of top quotes particularly enjoyable. Coming in at No. 16 was Sir Charles Barkley’s objections to Brett Favre’s sending of lewd photographs to a former female employee of the Jets.
I know what you’re thinking: There’s no religion angle to this story (aside, of course, from the shocking revelation that male athletes are not faithful to their wives). But there is. Look at what Barkley had to say:
“My biggest problem with the whole Brett Favre thing is, if you’re going to send a woman a picture of your junk, it should be huge. You can’t send small junk to a woman and expect anything. Seriously, you have to be like Ron Jeremy or some of those other porn stars. If you send a woman a picture of your junk, it should be humongous, it shouldn’t be small. That’s one of the Ten Commandments.”
I’ve met Ron Jeremy and I think that nice Jewish boy would agree that while there are some Commandments that might surprise you, that is not in fact one of them. What is certainly true is that Brett Favre and so many other athletes would benefit from watching the above “PSA.”

A natural gas field discovered in Israel’s territorial waters contains an esimated 16 trillion cubic feet of the natural resource.
Electrical log tests confirmed the size of the natural gas field, which was discovered in drilling earlier this year off the Mediterranean coast near Haifa and dubbed “Leviathan.” Noble Energy Inc. announced the results of the tests on Wednesday.
Leviathan is almost double the size of the Tamar field, which was discovered off Israel’s Mediterranean coast in 2009.
“This discovery has the potential to position Israel as a natural gas exporting nation,” said David L. Stover, president of Noble Energy.
The field is said to be the largest discovery in the history of the Houston-based company, which has a controlling interest in the field.
